IN THE PHILIPPINES.....

Aiah and Gelo are both busy attending to their commitments. Aiah is busy juggling her schedules between acting and modelling. Gelo has left and right projects for the promotion of his solo album and modelling career as well.

Both are having a hard time fitting their schedules, but try to see each other as much as they can. Exhaustion was clear at them, but taking a toil to Gelo the most who could not keep himself awake on their regular movie nights, or he never stops yawning in between of their weekly dinner dates.

Aiah, on the other hand, is emotionally and mentally drained. She should feel more motivated and happy being engaged, but why she feels the opposite. Since they got back from Paris, Aiah was now contemplating about her relationship with Gelo. She could not help but to compare the happiness she felt when she was with Mikha.

The degree of longing keeps haunting her heart. Aiah could not forget the night they both have shared. Every day since then, Mikha's face and their wordless expression of love kept on playing in her head. Being with Mikha feels "HOME and SAFE". And she knows, one of these days, she needs to decide.

IN NEW YORK CITY.........

Late afternoon on the 65th floor of the Rockefeller centre, inside Bar Sixty Five at Rainbow Room, Mikha and Jazz are having their early dinner. The weather is cool and beginning to show the sunset, illuminating the view of the buildings in Manhattan, especially the Empire State Building.

Mikha remembered the day she was with Aiah, watching the sunset in Trocadero in front of the Eiffel Tower. The glow in Aiah's eyes gives a chill to her heart and a smile formed on Mikha's lips, remembering about it. Jazz saw the trail of dreamy expression from Mikha, and she realized she was not listening to her. She summoned the latter, who is now her girlfriend.

Since they got back from Paris, Mikha never left her and always accompanied her whenever the latter was free. They agreed to stop having random hook-ups, but rather to push their special relationship into the next level.

Friendship becomes deeper and their time for dinner dates and random conversations are increasing. Jazz is beyond happy with the developments between them. She cares about Mikhs, no... she loves her more than her life. She will do everything in her power to replace Aiah in Mikha's heart.

Jazz often seen Mikha quiet and in deep thought always. "Where were you, Mikha? I was mentioning how my day has been, only been realising that you were not listening?" Jazz relayed it, sulking.

She feels guilty that her focus is drifting away more about Aiah rather than Jazz, who's in front of her. Mikha reached Jazz's hand, clinched it before uttering her apology. "Sorry Love! I was just mesmerised by the view of the Empire State and the sunset".
